I have never heard of the policy. It seems to me that its discriminatory to distinguish between Catholics and other Christians. After all, communion is the blood of Jesus. Why shouldn't other Christians partake? I wonder how set in stone the policy is? After all, there were non Catholic Christians that participated in the Pope's funeral. Were they denied communion as well? Ironically, the miracle that's being pushed forth in the attempt to fast-track JPII's canonization was that he cured an American Jewish man's cancer by giving him Communion. I saw that but according to the Vatican, they didn't know he was Jewish until after he took the communion. The whole thing strikes as being out of step with a world that is trying to find some commonality, not alienation. ted
